They said such measures are part of a broader strategy to convert the Muslim-majority population into a minority through demographic manipulation.<\/p>\n<p>The APHC maintained that Hindutva-driven forces in India have openly expressed intentions to efface Kashmir\u2019s unique identity and reshape it along ideological lines. \u201cThe BJP-RSS nexus is systematically paving the way for settler colonialism in IIOJK by altering demographic realities, granting domicile rights to non-locals, and seizing land and resources,\u201d the spokesman added.<\/p>\n<p>He said these acts are not isolated but part of a long-term agenda to revive a pre-Islamic narrative in Kashmir while marginalizing the political, cultural, and religious identity of its people. The Hurriyat spokesman emphasized that such acts violate international laws and United Nations resolutions that recognize Jammu and Kashmir as a disputed territory.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the gravity of the situation, APHC said preserving Kashmir\u2019s identity has become a matter of life and death for its people. It urged Kashmiris to remain united and vigilant against what they termed as Modi regime\u2019s \u201cdangerous machinations\u201d aimed at undermining their collective struggle.<\/p>\n<p>The spokesman further called upon the international community, particularly the United Nations, to take urgent notice of India\u2019s demographic engineering and cultural aggression in the territory. He stressed that silence over brutal measures would embolden India to further intensify its policies of repression and assimilation.<\/p>\n<p>APHC reiterated that despite India\u2019s coercive tactics, the people of Kashmir remain steadfast in their resolve and will not allow any attempt to erase their identity or suppress their legitimate struggle for freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the All Parties Hurriyat Conference has warned that India is intensifying efforts to erase the distinct identity of the Kashmiri people in a calculated move to weaken their internationally recognized right to self-determination.
